I picked this book up because of my love of cats and I am a huge fan of My Cat From Hell so finding a book by Jackson Galaxy at the library was a treat. The first part of the book talks about the cat, from what it is to be a cat, their body language and the different kind of cat personalities they have. This part of very insightful and I got a little more understanding of how cats are and made me appreciate my cat more. The second part of the book gives ideas on how to make your house more cat friendly environment. The example were cats on the show and I loved the ideas. They were fun, fresh and also inexpensive to do. I can't wait to get started on catifying my cat space.
